Formed in late 2001, Goofer Dust are a four-piece acoustic band from Brighton, England. The four members come from very different, though complementary musical backgrounds. Eclectism is very much the watch word when talking about their approach to music-making. Acoustic country blues meets jazz and country. Summing up the influences, let's just say there is Tom Waits, country blues (a la Kelly Joe Phelps, Mance Lipcomb & Eric Bibb) as well as Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings added into the mix.
